I didn't read a lot of comics as a kid, my Superhero consumption was pretty much entirely through the cartoons, so I was so confused when people were talking about how obscure the Guardians of the Galaxy were. Like, "What do you mean? Everybody knows who the Guardians of the Galaxy are. They were in that one episode of Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes?"

“average person eats 3 spiders a year” factoid actualy just statistical error. average person eats 0 spiders per year. Spiders Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

I can't get over the fact House referenced Brokeback Mountain, which means he'd canonically seen the movie. This is actually driving me crazy...for reasons. (Literally after this he's living with Wilson if you care)

but why isn't tumblr eating up Kaos netflix?

it's got everything! canon old man yaoi, a lot of trans representation, including a trans man as one of the main characters who is complex, desirable, and gets the girl at the end (uh, sorta, but, no spoilers), a succession-level of drama with a fucked up family that needs to be toppled, greek mythology, amazons, the three Fates as trans entities, the Furies as biker lesbians, a WHOLE spectrum of various sexualities and genders as well as great poc representation, a whole spectrum of disabilities, whimsical creatures and frightening, power hungry women... what are ya waiting for?

the red thread ariadne left in the labyrinth was the blood of her brother as she dragged him out of his prison. i'm gonna throw up.

Character Arc

One of the things I like most about Kaos is how...different the characters are compared to how they're viewed in mythology. I've seen some people complain about it, but I'm pretty sure they were written this way 100% on purpose to hammer in the theme of defiance.

We're introduced to Dionysus being the wild child of the gods, but do you know what we barely see him with? WINE! ALCOHOL! DRUGS! NOTHING! He actually acts as a caretaker for Dennis for most of the show, and his motivation for doing everything is to take on MORE RESPONSIBILITY! And yet, responsibility and proving yourself doesn't seem like something the god of wild frenzy would give a fuck about.

Hera....the mother fucking queen of the gods...aka THE GODDESS OF WOMEN, MARRIAGE, AND FAMILY is having an affair (I know they all have affairs in mythology, but it's more about what's happening in the context of this show), and instead of jumping on the "we need to preserve the family" bandwagon with Zeus immediately, she's actively trying to get him to calm down and forget about the prophecy that will destroy the family! Not to mention, she's got an army of tongueless women who were willing to be separated from their families to serve her.

Hades, who is usually painted as an intimidating, stoic god of the dead who hates Zeus....is actually a tired, anxious middle management type who ends up rolling over for Zeus in the pool scene.

And don't get me started on Orpheus and Eurydice.

The only one who seems like his usual self is Zeus. He's still the same power hungry, malevolent, self-centered, king of the gods. And yet, the harder he tries to defy his prophecy, the more likely it is to come to fruition.

obsessed with how Ariadne killed her dad, and Dionysus, who's been having daddy issues all season, witnessed this and instantly fell in love.

I love it when there's a couple but then there's a third guy who's also there and he's part of it but not like romantically he's just a part of the couple but like....platonically

Quick screenshot repaint Mace Windu is one of the coolest Star Wars characters, I really don’t understand the people who hate him…

Seeing Netflix either cancel good shows (Dead Boy Detectives, Dark Crystal, etc) or run them into the ground with really shitty endings (The Umbrella Academy) is making me even less inclined to ever watch anything on Netflix again.
